Have both doors in our 8314SS that have numerous horizontal cracks and have been this way for several years. Neither RV Wholesalers, who we purchased from nor Forest River offer solution to what is clearly a manufacturer defect. This unsightly defect doesn't bode well for Forest River when visiting RV parks and doors are open and visible for all to see. Hoping F.R. figures this out and considers customer service vs. Bottom line. Next stop is Trailer Life publication to see if mass exposure remedies problem for all of us who are victim of shoddy workmanship.
I had that happen on our 2011 R-Vision Crossover. I pulled the door apart and replaced the inside panel with an FRP from Home Depot and it looked great! The factory panel was SO thin that you could tear it with your hands.

Shoddy workmanship didn't cause your doors to crack.
Poor material maybe....?
As Just b rad mentioned it's a possible DIY fix for not a lot of money or
maybe even fixed free at the next rally.
Don't let this one cosmetic problem ruin your enjoyment of your trailer!
Go camping and
